- How about this team for starters? Sand-stream based to an extent.
- Tyranitar@Assault Vest
- Careful nature 252 HP 252 Sp.Def 4 Attack
- Earthquake
- Crunch
- Stone Edge
- Pursuit
- Pretty insane this generation as far as sp.def walling goes, this reaches near 700 I believe.
- Give it durability which is important to refresh sandstorm.
- Mawile@Mawilite
- Intimidate
- Adamant 252 HP 252 Atk 4def
- Play Rough
- Iron Head
- Sucker Punch
- Brick Break/Fire Fang/Substitute
- Your mega-evolution, setup-free core. This fucker hurts a lot.
- Excadrill@Life Orb
- Sand Rush
- Adamant 252 Attack 252 Speed 4 HP
- Swords Dance
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide
- X-Scissor/Poison Jab/Shadow Claw/Rapid Spin
- Your core set-up sweeper. This guy's insane, you get one swords dance off and almost everything in the game is fucked.
- Obvious downside is priority, this guy should be pulled out after its counters have been dealt with to end the game.
- * side note - he's very sandstorm reliant. playing him well would be key to your victory or loss. you have 4 actual turns, 3 excluding the one you SD in, to do your damage. use them well.
- Next I'd say go for a Salamence. He has key fighting, fire and water resist and ground immunity.
- Just copy the top set at Smogon, there aren't that many ways to play it.
- I opt for Scarf mence because you already have a Pokemon that's set-up reliant [though you CAN have 2] and he's a very effective revenge killer that's independent of Sandstorm, unlike Excadrill.
- Azumarill@Choice Band
- Huge Power
- Adamant 252 HP 252 Attack 4 def
- Waterfall
- Aqua Jet
- Play Rough
- Super Power
- Hits like a truck, can easily find switches because of fighting, water and fire resists.
- Easy revenge killer for those fast threats like Blaziken, other Excadrills and other fragile mons.
- THAT said, you CAN try a belly drum set, but it's just a huge risk. Mostly you need the terrain to be clear of counters.
- Togekiss@Leftovers
- Serene Grace
- Bold 252 HP 252 Def 4 Sp.Def
- Wish
- Thunder Wave
- Air Slash
- Fairy attack/toxic/protect/etc
- Togekiss works as team support, he dishes out thunder wave [which is key with slow Pokemon like T-Tar, Mawile, and Azumarill .
- He can hand out wish and has big physical bulk along with, again, key ground and fighting resist.
- Things to note:
- Yeah, you have 3 fairy types, but since 2 are neutral to steel, and 1 is immune to poison, it really doesn't matter, it's just an added bonus resist to fighting.
- This was made off the top of my head using the idea of sandstorm, but it's by no means what you HAVE to play, just a general idea.
- If you like any sets in particular, you can just copy them and transfer them to other teams.
- The only one here who is really reliant on the other members is Excadrill.
- If there's other mons you want me to incorporate say so.
- I may have missed obvious synergy problems/counters so it's by no means perfect.
